Joint Group Letter on Governor Hochul's Proposal for NYPA to Build New Renewable and Energy Storage
To meet its renewable energy mandates, we need the private sector to remain acutely interested in New York and aggressively develop, invest in, and build wind, solar, and battery storage energy projects. Our fear is that, if New York State signals that it prefers that NYPA build the needed renewable energy and storage, the private sector will decide it is preferable to engage in the development process outside of New York.

Memorandum in Strong Opposition - S.4134 (Parker) / A.279 (Carroll)
We strongly oppose S.4134 (Parker) / A.279 (Carroll). This legislation would, among other provisions, significantly expand the New York Power Authority’s (NYPA) ability to acquire, develop, own, and operate existing and new renewable electric generating facilities and energy storage in this State. NYPA testified in opposition to this bill at a NYS Assembly public hearing, in July of last year, on the role of State authorities in renewable energy development.

Memorandum in Support - S.2585-A (Parker)
IPPNY supports S.2585-A (Parker). This bill passed the Senate unanimously in 2021, and it would further the implementation of the Climate Action Council’s adopted Scoping Plan. The Scoping Plan indicates that the NYS Public Service Commission (PSC), in coordination with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, and other agencies “should identify, explore, evaluate, and support the development of dispatchable technologies and solutions as they emerge in support of the Climate Act’s requirements for a zero-emission electricity system by 2040 and for consistency with Section 7(2) and 7(3) of the Climate Act.”
